VISUAL MONITORING SYSTEM The Visual Monitoring System™ (VMS) is an all-in-one battery sensor that offers a cost effective, intuitive solution to manage your battery fleet and confirm that the batteries have been charged, cooled and watered. The bright LED can be positioned in a convenient location for easy monitoring, even from far away. The durable, reliable design protects your battery investment by taking the guesswork away. The VMS alerts the user that the battery needs water only after it has been fully charged, preventing watering at the wrong time, while tracking the number of charge cycles. When used with a watering system from Battery Watering Technologies, the VMS offers the most effective battery maintenance program available.
